Hand-coloured engraved twin-hemisphere map of the world, state 3 (Rea imprint erased in the plate but just legible), decorative borders incorporating polar celestial hemispheres, medallion portraits of the first four circumnavigators (Magellan, Drake, Cavendish and Van Noort), allegorical figures of the four elements, and diagrams of solar and lunar eclipses (tiny chip to right-hand edge), 398 x 526mm, framed and glazed. UNCOMMON SURVIVAL OF THE REA BROTHER'S PUBLICATION OF SPEED'S WORLD MAP.

The engraver may have been Abraham Goos, who engraved other maps in Speed's atlas. Shirley 317.
